smoky tomato & lentil soup

smoky tomato & lentil soup

Smoked paprika is one of the most magical ingredients. If you can’t
find it the soup will be OK without, but I highly recommend tracking
some down.
This ia great pantry recipe to have in your repetoire for when you
need a quick impromptu meal.
serves 2
2 cans lentils (400g / 14oz)
1 can tomatoes (400g / 14oz)
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried chilli
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1. Place, lentils and their canning liquid, tomatoes, paprika
and chilli in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer.
2. Crush tomatoes to break them up a little with a spoon.
3. Simmer, covered for 2-3 minutes or until the soup is
lovely and hot.
4. Taste and season with soy sauce, a little salt and pepper.
Drizzle with some peppery extra virgin olive oil for some richness.
